If you caught this post on “2017 Plans” last month, then you know I stopped doing monthly “goal” posts just about as quickly as I started. The perfectionist in me came out in full force trying to reach the goals I had made oh so public. While I do think it's important to set goals, and my blog is definitely a nice revenue stream for me, watching it grow and flying by the seat of my pants a little has been what keeps it fun!
Here is a quick look back on January 2017 from a personal standpoint:
– This month took a serious emotional toll on me. Between politics and people, it feels like the month of ego's run rampant and negativity everywhere I turn. This month consisted of a lot of beach time, binge watching, Mexican food, pizza, and tea —> basically my self-care mega-load.
– This year my word is “organized” — Oprah said she used to have a guiding word each year, but she found that whatever she themed her year as she got a bunch of stuff that tested the ish out of it… Which basically feels like what's happening in my life. Due to the emotional rollercoaster, my organizational skills have gotten all flipped upside down. If you are struggling and feel like you keep hitting set back after set back, just know you are not alone.
Which leads me to something new I am trying at the start of each month: a quick themed round-up of past posts on TCM!
This months post are to help you go from feeling totally lost and overwhelmed to just simply confused — haha see what I did there? Confused millennial and all that jazz ?.
